French is the language of...people who live in France but not only. French is the official language of 14 other countries plus French overseas territories like French Guyana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte. Not bad for an (ex) colonial power. I will not go in details about France "glorious" past as an imperial power but for those of you interested in history I recommend the book "Europe and the people without history" by Eric Wolf.

Now, in 2014,  brute military force is one way of conquering the world but why use violence and oprression if one has disco french pop? A weapon that powerful can conquer every dance floor from Montreal to Rabat. It can install love, peace and harmony even in the heart of the most passionate metal heads and hip hop players.

This track is part of "Voyage Love" EP by Le couleur, an extraordinaire band from Montreal, Canada. You must listen to another great track fromt this EP - "Vacances de 87'" and make sure you have vintange ski equipment on or even better - you are celebrating new year's eve in a cosy chalet high in the mountains.
